I was wondering if these wheels will fit my 3.0i without any adjustment?

8.5 x 19” 235 / 35 ZR 19 front
9.5 x 19” 265 / 30 ZR 19 rear
(offset unknown)

According the Alpina website no issues, but Aren't the CSL wheels the same size? I was told that you could only fit the CSL's on the Z4M.
 
If I was going for 19" rims on my Z4, I think on a non-M these are the ultimate wheel - just a shame I'll never fit 19"s due to the road conditions where I stay...

Not far from me and I have 19s although look like a drink driver at times dodging holes. Truly awful in Scotland the now :thumbsdown:
 
I have a Alpina Roadster S. The wheels cost approximately £500.00 a corner and abot £300.00 a tyre if you are going with the michlen tyres that are recomended by alpina.

Not sure if anyone does replica wheels.

Same setup as me.. Fit perfectely, not even any rubbing.

As mentioned the only down side is the price of replscement tyres. The Michelins are £££!
 
I use Goodyear's Eagle F1 Asymmetrics in the sizes mentioned earlier, absolutely incredible tire! Will check for the offsets when I can find the time.

I'm just waiting to be pulled over sometime for my "erratic" driving as I dodge the potholes at times :roll:. In the past I would've said Paisley was the worst area but I now think my are (Falkirk) beats that easily for the roads in the worst condition...
 
While talking about tyre prices I have just paid £140 for a Falken 452 265/30/19 fitted that price included a mangled newly refurbed wheel, which I get back today from its 2nd refurb, read somehwere recently (might even be on here) about someone being stopped by the Police for erratic driving then pointing to the pothole, the Police sort of smiled and walked away, I don't find the 19's any more of a liability (other than width restrictions and my clumsy driving) with the potholes as the 17's I had previously, if you like them go for it. :thumbsup:


Off topic, going over to Kirkcaldy to see the wife's folk's at the weekend what's the weather like over that side? should we take the Focus or the Zed?

The weather over here is absolutely fine - we seem to have escaped the snow. Definate Z4 weather without a doubt, although given that it's Kirkcaldy the Focus might be a better idea if you want to come back still with 4 wheels :P

(it's OK, I'm allowed to take the p*ss about Fife as my parents-in-law stay there)

It's actually Kennoway, so I'm not sure what's worse, just hope she's not reading this, saw the coverage on the news of that Bus crash and made wonder how bad it is coming accross.
 
Luckily we're a bit north of there but the weather between Glasgow and Falkirk is fine (a bit more snowy around Cumbernauld as usual but roads perfectly clear). I can see Fife from my house and it's snow-free, or at leaast it looks that way. Nosa stays in Dunfermline so could probably give a better update than me if you PM'd him.

I really do like these wheels but there's no way I'm changing from my 202's :)
 
I've found the offset of the Alpina's... according to this website Front & Rear wheels are both ET50
http://www.alloywheelsdirect.net/bmw_alloy_wheels/z4_e85_e86_alloys/19_alpina_dynamic_wheel_397

still having some doubts though.
I have the oppurtunity to buy some replica 19"x8J and 19"x9J BBS lemans wheels, for a reasonable price and good quality (obviously not so lightweight like genuine BBS wheels).
It will save me a lot of money and combined with eibach springs it will propably look even better then these Alpina's.
Even though the Le Mans wheels are slightly less wide compared to the Alpina's I would still mount the 235/265 tyre combination.

What do you guys think?
